Using TIMER MODE & TEMPERATURE MODE simultaneously
The TIMER MODE and TEMPERATURE MODE can be used simultaneously. This allows you to mon-
itor the temperature for both FOOD and BABECUE in the TEMPERATURE MODE when using the
TIMER MODE to keep track of another cooking task. You can tell different task by the alarm sound
as well as the icons.
1. In the THERMOMETER MODE, when the temperature is reached, the receiver will alarm you
by beeping once in every second for the BARBECUE temperature and beeping twice in every
second for the FOOD temperature. The alarm icons and probe temperature will blink along with
the alarm sound.
2. In the TIMER MODE, when the timer is reached, the receiver will alarm you by beeping 3 times
in every second. Either the upward arrow (for count-up) or downward arrow (for countdown)
will blink.
